Some of them are with little sisters, some of them are loners, a good tip is to find a loner throw the big daddy control thing at it and then find a little sister, battle of the daddies

I swear one of the little sisters can be heard asking "Daddy or chips?" as well, couldn't be sure.....

But yeah, some of them you can be following for hours and they'll just keep knocking then walk off, I always find if they don't get one after the first knock, just kill them

How many little sisters did you lot get in Neptunes Bounty? It says theres only 3, but I have harvested 4 so far, and it added a new harvested little sister icon in the pause menu. When I go to leave neptunes bounty it tells me I havent got all little sisters yet? Ive been following all big daddies around for ages as they knock on vents, but nothing... must be a bug right?

Aye it's a bug I had that as well, and as far as I know it hasn't affected my status of saving them all.

just out of curiosity, how much adam do you get from killing the little sisters, i've been saving them and as such i have no idea if it's really worth it or not

I'd say it's worth it, just because the ending is really nice when you do

Actually watching it made me feel all good inside lol

Not sure why you would kill them :confused:

seems like a waste of ammo as you only benefit if they have a little sister and they won't ever hurt you unless you hurt them...

twice as much I think. On the first one I quick-saved beforehand and tried both and iirc it was twice as much. Rescued all of them after that.

Cause it's fun?

If you know a good way of killing them then there is no harm in having some fun

Once you take the gifts into account you end up with much the same ADAM regardless.

So, did anybody manage to get into that little bit of the map behind the door in the bottom right hand corner of Arcadia opposite where you enter the level?

BloomerzUK · 30 Aug 2007 at 23:51

Hi Guys,

I've just installed BioShock

It doesn't want to run. It installs okay, auto-patches/updates, and then I click on the BioShock Shortcut of the desktop, it loads up (I see it in Task Manager), then it just dies. DVD Drive stops spinning, like nothing happened?!

What's going on!? I've never had this before in a game, I've been lucky up to now.

BloomerzUK · 31 Aug 2007 at 15:01

Any help?

Have you gone thru the activation process yet? Also whats ya PC spec?

BloomerzUK · 31 Aug 2007 at 15:51

I've gone through the activation, it said it was a success.

Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 @ 2GHz
2GB GeIL PC6400 DDII RAM
Club3D 8800GTS 320MB
Abit Quad GT Motherboard
Corsair HX520 PSU

keogh · 31 Aug 2007 at 16:01

Do you see the small "BIOSHOCK" logo appear on ya desktop when you start to boot the game up? You should see a small BIOSHOCK logo on the middle of your desktop a few seconds after you click the bioshock shortcut, then a feew seconds later it will boot! This game doesnt boot the quickest, how long have you left it until you have decided it dont boot?

BloomerzUK · 31 Aug 2007 at 16:07

I installed it, and then clicked the Shortcut, and nothing. No BioShock Logo, or nothing.

The Exe runs for like 5-6 seconds and then dies?

Doubt you will get an answer to that frosty, BloomerzUK says the game doesn't run at all mate! So the FPS would be 0 I reckon?
